List of parties (Part 50 appeal) (Form 82)

Where proceedings have more than 2 plaintiffs or more than 2 defendants, a list of parties must be filed with the originating process (UCPR r 4.2A(1)), and an amended list must accompany any document that changes the parties (r 4.2A(3)); cross-claims and cross-appeals with more than two parties on a side, or a new party, need a list or amended list too (r 4.2A(2)). Form 82 (version 3) is the approved list for Part 50 appeals. It is dated, and it has two parts: the parties to each claim and cross-claim in the court below, and the parties to the appeal and any cross-appeal with their legal representatives and contact details. Under r 50.5, everyone directly affected by the relief sought or interested in maintaining the decision must be joined as a defendant to the appeal.

When you need it

• You are commencing a Part 50 appeal (with Form 84) in which there are more than two plaintiffs or defendants.
• You are filing a cross-summons in the appeal that adds a party or has more than two parties on a side.
• A document you file changes the parties to the appeal and an amended list is required (r 4.2A(3)).

   Insert the date of the list in the heading (an amended list carries a new date). Complete the court details and title of the appeal.

   List the plaintiffs and defendants in the claim below, and the cross-claimants and cross-defendants for each cross-claim, with each party's role.

5. 5

   Appeal proceedings - party and contact details

   On a separate page, list each plaintiff and defendant in the appeal with their legal representative, contact name, telephone and email. Parties with the same lawyer can be grouped. For each cross-appeal, give contact details only for new parties.

• File the list with the summons commencing the appeal or the relevant cross-summons in the registry of the appeal court (r 4.2A), and serve it with that document.
• If the court below is a court, a copy of the summons commencing the appeal must also be filed in that court's registry on the day the appeal is instituted (r 50.6).
• A filing fee may apply to the documents it accompanies. Check the current fee schedule of the appeal court.

• Use the roles exactly as they will appear in the appeal (for example "first defendant"), which may differ from the roles below.
• File an amended list whenever a party is added or removed (r 4.2A(3)).
• Do not repeat contact details already given earlier in the list.
